  Combining Presentation and Content Markup
For instance, the factorial of a number might be expressed with an exclamation mark, a Gamma function, or a Pochhammer symbol.
Thus, in a presentation context, elements such as these do not have a clearly defined meaning, and hence there is no obvious choice for a rendering.
Using the terminology of Section 4.2.1 Overview of Syntax and Usage, we see that operator, relation, container, constant and symbol elements make sense on their own, while elements of the qualifier and condition type do not.

However, the same notation is used for the rising factorial (also called Pochhammer symbol) :n(n + 1)(n + 2)...(n + r − 1).
The lowercase Iota symbol is sometimes used to write the imaginary unit but more often latin i or latin j are used.

In mathematics, the Pochhammer symbol(x)_n\,is used in the theory of special functions to represent the "rising factorial" or "upperfactorial"(x)_n=x(x+1)(x+2)\cdots(x+n-1)and, confusingly, is used in combinatorics to represent the "falling factorial" or "lower factorial"(x)_n=x(x-1)(x-2)\cdots(x-n+1).

 Math Markup Language (Chapter 5)
Thus, the same presentation markup can be rendered with relative ease on screen in either wide and narrow windows, in ASCII or graphics, in print, or it can be enunciated in a sensible way when spoken.
we use the mo presentation element inside a ci element to achieve the proper presentation, along with a semantics element which binds a semantic definition to the symbol.
Here, the semantics of the presentation subexpressions have been given using symbols from OpenMath content dictionaries (CD).
